What exactly is the problem about having a set time to register and then following that and closing registration? It prevents people from playing who didn't sign up in advance? It's a ladder, so there's no reason people have to start playing from day 1. Information about events is passed around the community. No matter what you guys think about your site, I guarantee you the vast majority of competitive players are going to get their information from sites like this. And the information is more likely to surface here when the qualifier starts, so that's when players want to register to play it. I am amazed you cannot understand something so simple. WCG Korea is in charge of running Starceaft, you play via their client, their website and their rules. I dont see whats so hard to understand about that? It's funny, I don't see these millions of problems with other countries. If it's really WCG Korea's fault, then fuck them instead, obviously. Don't see why WCG USA is a separate entity then, if all they do is do precisely what WCG Korea retardedly tells them to do. The only conflicting information in the 2 emails is that one said tournament and the other said ladder. That has been clarified many times on the website. Control already responded with several other issues with conflicting information. The only thing WCG USA is organizing is the registration. Yep, and it's retarded to block registration after a certain date on a ladder. | ||

people can trade wins, dodge good players, etc... in the end you might have some really stupid (not that they're dumb) people qualifying for the finals... like some guy who just abuses the ladder system and avoids good players or whatever else and ends up qualifying for the final and not even showing up or something. the ladder could potentially be a huge clusterfuck for the whole WCG USA process. i think the tournament style of last year is much better | ||

Any matches that have taken place in the last 24 hours will be reset, and potentially replayed once the new system is in place. Registration will re-open for all qualifiers, and players will be notified via email as soon as any information regarding the qualifier schedule is available. Thank you for your patience. | ||

Hi Laurent, thanks a lot for helping out and telling people some information and then responding to feedback. I think everyone is greatly going to appreciate this welcome change to a tournament style, thanks for listening! | ||

And wtf is up with the sudden bitching about maps, as WCG had a new set of maps last year (though some stayed from the previous year); they have the same set of maps for at least 2 years in a row. Acting surprised about the maps and just now complaining about it is ridiculous.Was anyone even complaining last year? I'm not a big fan of some of the maps, but enough is enough, you can't please everyone... play the games... jesus. | ||

WCG Korea is running this. WCG Korea is the top 24 KeSPA players plus 8 others from some event (not one hundred percent on the other 8, but I'm sure they're determined using LAN)? And it's all LAN. So they'll know there if someone is hacking (GamOn client can suck balls and there won't be a problem because observers/commentators/spectators will be like "WTF 10K minerals? O.O") Someone said this somewhere else. The United States is a huge fucking country just for travel. One central LAN for everyone to try and qualify. So we need to use online. GamOn has been bitched about millions of times. Why don't they just let us use Iccup or at least Chaos launcher and just use a tournament, because a ladder is so abusable? Software isn't one size fits all. We have different needs than Koreans. Do they realize this? Put iNcontroL in control, and we will have a smooth successful event. Couldn't help the terrible pun, sorry :p | ||

This stuff should have happened months ago, not now. Fix gameon and stick with what you have, it's not like it hasn't worked in the past. It's just ridiculous having to guess how WCG is going to be ran every day, while it's supposed to be going on... Everyone has their own opinion, can't let it fucking change how WCG is going to be ran every day.
